Ursula, back to your question. I have never tried to grow a Bollea orchid primarilly because like Zygos, I consider them cool season growers. These orchids come from deep in the rain forest in South America so they like wet, cool and shade. I have one Zygo that struggles along and now this Bollo. What possessed me to buy it is a mystery but at least I got it to bloom.
